5 Shots That Will Go Down In Selfie History
What would our world be without the selfie? Probably a little less ridiculous, but also not as entertaining! While some people take the concept of selfies a bit too far, there are those who manage to capture some pretty epic moments.
1. The Next Generation Of Selfies
NBD, just some of the biggest names in sci-fi history taking a casual selfie.
I'm loving this one!
Before he was Sir Paul McCartney, he was just another kid taking a selfie.
These days, Paul and his buddy Warren spend their time photobombing other people's selfies.

Mind-Blowing, Crazy and Bizarre: 3 Home Designs that will Shock You
When building a home, there is often a good chance that you will end up in a traditional style house that resembles many other nearby homes. However, some people want to avoid tradition altogether, opting to design homes that stand apart from others as a reflection of their personalities. We found 18 mind-blowing and bizarre home designs that will surprise you in the fact that they stand upright! These homes will give you a fresh perspective on design and function! Are you ready? Let’s take a look at a few of the most bizarre houses in the world!
Look again! No, this picture has not been distorted in any way. In fact, the home has been constructed in a unique architectural design that creates the appearance of being distorted. Structurally sound despite the appearance, this uniquely beautiful home opens its center to a ceiling of glass windows that offer breathtaking overhead views.
Let’s be honest: if there weren’t people in this picture, we would have turned the photo around to ensure the house was right-side up. But, thanks to the long line of guests waiting in line, we are quite certain that this house was built upside down. Without any danger of rolling down the hill, the home was constructed to look as though it had been tossed aside and toppled over, a successful design to say the least!
This home was built as a replica of a David Steinbeck home that was built especially for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. The house was designed to mirror its natural landscape and work with the beauty of the surrounding geography. From the stone work and extended deck to the waterfall, this is the most peaceful home on our list.

Awesome Remote - Controlled Big Truck
Luca Bordin is a big fan of American trucks, and since he couldn’t get his hands on a real rig, the Italian handyman decided to build his own Peterbilt 359.
Bordin but it over 2,000 hours of work, over nine months, but the result is just breathtaking. His remote-controlled Peterbilt 359 model is a perfect replica of the original, right down to the authentic California license plates. The 16-foot-long, 3-foot-tall model tips the scale at 180 kg without the trailer, and goes over 250 kg with the trailer attached. He used images and drawings of the American truck, built a perfectly scaled wooden model of the cabin, which he later used to make one out of fiberglass, created a sturdy iron-pipe frame capable of withstanding serious weight, and used a steering system inspired by go-karts, where the wheels have a different turning radius.
To make his 1/4 scale replica Peterbilt 359 functional, Luca Bordin installed a 36-volt, 750-watt electric motor, which, although not as powerful as he would have liked, is strong enough to tow his Nissan Patrol GR SUV. He even made the “green” decision of mounting a solar panel on the trailer to provide power to the truck. Other cool features of the remote-controlled truck include hundreds of LEDs lighting up the cabin, real truck horns powered by a mini-compressor, and even a small fog machine, like the ones used in dance clubs, that pumps fake smoke through the twin smokestacks. The truck even sounds authentic, thanks to a pair of speakers that emit the sound of a 400-horse-power engine.

The trailer is also an awe-inspiring work of art. On command, it opens to reveal a 22-inch LCD display, and a monster sound system that is bound to make any automotive enthusiast jealous. Luca Bordin says he hand-built his awesome Peterbilt 359 truck replica for personal satisfaction, and doesn’t plan on selling it.

Chrysler Confirms New Ram Dakota
Before the Ram trucks were introduced as a standalone brand, there was the Dodge Dakota. And now, as confirmed by Chrysler CEO Sergio Macrchionne, that vehicle is all set to receive a successor, the Ram Dakota. Speaking at the Detroit Auto Show, the CEO explained that the new vehicle may be built based on a unibody construction technique.
If the unibody construction plan does take off, the company believes that it will limit the truck’s off-roading abilities. However, on the brighter side, this will help in increasing the vehicle’s efficiency and will also provide it with a handling capability comparable with those of cars.
Marchionne has also revealed that the new Ram Dakota will have the possibility of receiving a diesel unit, which would be based on that of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Chrysler hasn’t revealed anything about an official launch schedule for the vehicle, but it is expected that the new Dakota will go on sale late next year, or in early 2014.

Ford Atlas Named Autoweek's Most Significant Detroit Auto Show Debut
The new Ford Atlas Concept, which previews the future of America's best-selling pickup truck for the past 36 years and the best-selling vehicle overall for 31 straight years, the F-150, has been named by the editors of Autoweek magazine, the "Most Significant vehicle of the 2013 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS)".
Bob Gritzinger, Autoweek executive editor, explains why:
“The Atlas Concept is clearly Most Significant winner for the things you don’t see, like hidden aerodynamic improvements and weight savings from high-strength steel and interior parts, like thinner seats. Those things add up to significant fuel savings for pickup trucks down the road. A next-generation EcoBoost with Auto Start-Stop technology also signals why Atlas is a real game changer.”
Optimus Prime hiding in plain sight
With Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen holding the number box office spot for two weeks, there couldn't be a better time for this ardent Autobot fan to be flogging his truck on eBay. Done up thoroughly enough to qualify as an Optimus Prime replica, this 1997 Peterbilt 379 wears custom PPG paint and clearcoat, along with hand-applied pinstripes.
If you do actually want to haul things, under that extended hood – just like Prime has – there's a 475 horsepower Caterpillar running through a ten-speed Eaton Fuller transmission. Bidding is up to $20,300 at time of writing, but you've got nine days left to get your bid in and make room in your back yard... and then you can retrieve the Allspark.

Batmobile lookalike 'The Punisher' armored 4x4 set to join Russian armory
Russia or any other superpower in the world doesn’t really dispel information about its latest military acquisition with ease, leaving only a few dry press releases and a few pre-approved pictures for the public to see. With the secrecy that surrounds the Russian military, it’s only natural that the latest addition to their fleet also draws a lot of attention even though information about it as sparse as they get.
This single picture of a mysterious four wheeled addition to the Russian armed forces has been found circulating around the blogosphere even though information about it is very rare still. Tentatively dubbed The Punisher, the vehicle is speculated to be a Kamskiy Avtomobilny Zavod (Kamaz) creation and the armored vehicle will possibly be used by the Russian Army and Interior Ministry.The vehicle bears an uncanny resemblance to another multipurpose armored personnel carrier already in service in the Russian military called the BPM-97. The 4x4 was deployed in escort and patrol missions, peacekeeping, troop and cargo transportation with the transportation of valuable goods and explosives being its secondary function. The Punisher, given its close resemblance to the BPM-97, too may be given the same roles though without any details on the project from official sources, anything we say can only be speculation at best.

REVIEW: 2013 GMC TERRAIN DENALI V6
For years General Motors fought a rearguard action, asserting that its relatively big cam-in-block engines were at least as good as the “high tech” DOHC mills offered by “the Japanese.” Led by the buff books, freethinking pistonheads knew better. More power from a smaller displacement engine clearly indicated higher intelligence. Honda, smartest of all, extracted 270 horsepower from a 3.0-liter V6.
The 1990 Corvette made do with 245 horsepower from a 5.7-liter V8. Two decades later, GM finally developed a 3.0-liter V6 with an NSX-like output, and without the Acura’s pricey titanium innards or need for premium fuel. The new engine took the place of a previous-generation 3.6. My response after sampling the then-new V6 in the similarly new GMC Terrain: “Perhaps the 3.6 will at least find its way into a future Denali variant?” Three years later, the future has arrived.
As 1990s GM argued, horsepower wasn’t the issue with the 3.0. Rather, 264 horsepower were easily sufficient, but arrived at a lofty 6,950 rpm. These days, even sports car buyers prefer more accessible thrust. At people hauler engine speeds, the V6 wasn’t up to the task of motivating a 4,200-pound crossover. While the 3.6 churns out 37 more horsepower at a lower (but still high) 6,500 rpm peak, it pays its biggest benefits through the midrange, providing 50 pound-feet of additional twist (272 @ 4,800 vs. 222 @ 5,100). Put your foot to the floor, and the 2013 Terrain is certainly quicker. But the most meaningful improvement is that acceleration now sounds and feels effortless rather than strained in typical daily driving. The slightest hill no longer requires that the transmission drop down a cog or three.
